OUR BELOVED DEAD.

They say if our beloved dead
Should seek the old familiar place.
Some stranger would be there instead,
And they would find no welcome face.
l cannot tell how it might be
In other homes-but this know:
Could my lost darling come to me,
That she would never find il So
Outlines the flowers have come and gone,
Outlines the winter winds have blown
The while her peaceful rest went on
And / have learned to live alone
Have slowly learned from day to day
In all life's tasks to bear my part:
But whether grave, or whether CAV,
l hide her memory in my heart
Fond, faithful love has blest my way.
And friends are round me true and tried
They have their plaee-but hers TO-DAY
Is empty as the day she died.
How would l spring with bated breath.
And joy too deep for word or sign.
To take my darling home from death.
And once again to call her mine!
/ dare not dream-the blissful dream.
1t fills my heart with wild unrest:
Where yonder cold white marbles CLAIM
She still must siumber-God knows hoSt
But this know, that those who say
Our best beloved would find no place
Have never hungered every day
Through years and years-for one swee
lace. Troy Times.

nj mortality. and the insidious way in
which the poisonous germ gets its hold on
the children has given rise to the dread of a
veritable Egyptian plague. Duchess county
is healthy and picturesque region with
good natural drainage and supplied with
fresh spring water. OF the many theories
respecting the cause of the plague advanced
by local physicians. one is that it is caused
by climatic changes. One physician says
that he has observed that new cases are re-
ported after each spell of wet OF cold
weather Another doctor has traced it to
the chewing gum used by children. in which
he thinks the germs of the disease are hid
den. AT all events the outbreak of this
plague may serve to give medical science a
fresh opportunity to learn something of this
mysterious disease which is the blight of so
many American homes.

Kindred,s Fine Hand.

By a great deal OF shrewdness and
equally as much eloquence, Senator Buck
man, of Sank Rapids, succeeded in knock
ing out the bill for the relocation of the
Duluth & Winnipeg road, which it was
proposed to run twenty miles south of
Leech Lake. The committee on public
lands recommended a substitute. and on
Senator Buckman's motion the substitute
was indefinitely postponed. Then to kill
the matter too dead for resurrection, SEN
atOr Buchanan moved a reconsideration.
Senator Whiteman, of Duluth, entered a
vigorous protest against such a course
Senator Buchanan persisted and made a
speech with all the fire of the spirit which
nominated Cushman K. Davis. He does
not talk very much. He said the Duluth
& Winnipeg people did not intend to build
the road-had never intended to do so.
Accordingly the legislature of last session
decided to transfer its land grant to the
Brainerd & NOrthwestern-aco company which
did intend to build road. This re-
location scheme was only a game to take
advantage of line which private midi
viduals had surveyed at their own expense;
in short, a scheme to rob those parties of
their work. Since some of the land had

range, the country in the vicinity of
Duluth had developed, and where not
so very long ago there wasn't settler, the
natural resources had been worked, and
since the construction of the Duluth g. iron
range, in one year, there were $40. 900 tons
of iron shipped. He was convinced the
Brainerd Il Northwestern would build
the road, and all the country in Northern
Minnesota would be very materially bane-
fitted.
Senator Whiteman replied that it was the
intention of the Duluth & Winnipeg to
build the road, while Oh the other hand
the Brainerd IL Northwestern parties
simply wanted to speculate in the lands
and make big DEAL 1t was for the inter-
est of Duluth that the substitute should be
adopted.
1t was plain to be seen that the best
argument Senator Whiteman could have
brought to bear upon the matter would
have neen of no avail against the feeling of
the senate in favor of the Brainerd &

The Usury Bill.

House File No. 1.-The bill relating to the
interest on money-was reached on the cal.
endar yesterday, and at one time it looked
as If protracted struggle would be precip.
ltafed on the honse. A number of amend
ments were proposed. and con-
siderable discussion INDUCED in. There
seemed to be sentiment in favor of q
compromise measure, and Mr.. Donnelly
expressed himself as willing to accept g
compromise. Ii is probable that a 6 anG
8 per cent. bill will meet with favor anC
pass the house. The committee of the
whole, i'll which the bill was being consid-
cred, decided to report progress simply, anG
ask leave to sit again to consider it.
During the consideration of the bill a mo.
ton to indefinitely postpone was lost
yeas 26, nays 39-and Lum's amendment;
10 insert 10 per cent. was lost, only ter
votes being cast for it, Mr. Donnelly'.
amendment was carried that agents should
not be allowed commission of more THAI
per cent. The bill Will probably come ur
this forenoon. If some steps are not taker
to head OFT the members who want to make
speeches, there is likely to be good dea
OF time consumed in consideration of thu
bill.

found that they were all out and she chose

Corporation influence is responsible for
the position taken by some of the news
papers that the creation Of national bureau
Of agriculture and labor is unnecessary.
If there is any one interest in the world
which deserves special recognition it is
agriculture. 1t is the foundation of all
other industries. and, in fact, underieS the
whole structure of commercial and indus
trial prosperity. Its sadly dis0rganiZed
condition appeals to the government for
lelp. Aid can be afforded in no better way
Than by the creation of an agricultural de-
partment, such as is now contemplated by
congress. The very fact that such a de-
partment will result in organizing the agri-
cultural industries is probably the reason
Why the corporations wish to defeat the
proposition. Corporate organization is
master of the situation in the present
lisorganiZed state of agriculture. But
when agriculture and labor become organ
Zed under government control, corporate
influence will be powerleSS. The very
:easOns which are urged against the crea-
ion of the new department are the ones
that ought to be the most potent in its favor.

VOICE OF TIL PEOPLE.
The OvernOr's Power.

To the Editor Of the Globe:
Permit me to supplement with short letter
one which you published some time go,with-
out my signature, relating to the right of the
governor to appoint judge. provided for by
bill pending in the legislature, in the Second
judicial district. Washington dispatches this
morning state: .Messrs. Edmunds, Pugh,
Harris and other senators of prominence de-
clare without qualification that the president
has no shadow of constitutional or legal right
TO I'LL an office newly created when the senate
is not in session to give its advice and con-
sent, and that his power in the premises is
limited to filling vacancies temporarily during
the recess. 1t is held that should he do so
they could not qualify draw their salaries or
legally perform any duties" Senator Ed
munds will be admitted to be good authority
anywhere on q constitutional or legal propo-
sition. IL he IS correct in the case named, j.
e., commissioners to be appointed under the
interstate commerce act, the point is far
clearer under our state constitution. Article
2. section 2. of the constitution of the United
States, provides: The pl esdent shall nomi-
nate, and by and with the advice and consent
OF the senate, shall appoint am
bassadors and other officers which shall
be established by law. The president shall
have power to fill up all vacancies that may
happen during the recess Of the senate by
granting commissions, which shall expire at
the end of the next session" The reason
given by Senator Edmunds and others is that
in newly created office there has beeR no
vacancy. Our own constitution, article s.
section 4, provides: He (the governor)
shall have power by and with the advice and
consent OF the senate TO appoint a state
librarian and notaries public and such other
officers as may be provided by law. 4
He shall ill any vacancy which may occur in
x and such other state and district
offices as may be hereafter created until the
next annual election and until their success
sors shall have been chosen and qualified. THE
act here referred to in effect creates vacancy
and fills it-a solecism in philosophy, law and
legislation, and if consummated a palpable
usurpaton. ] make no argument because
the proposition appears to me automatic.
Yours truly, j. b. BRISBIN.
